Lyrics:

THE TIME WITHIN
I’ d been sailing for months / longing for a beautiful spring /on the mainland at Port April.
But they banned us from getting off /and made us wait on the ship / for a plague epidemic.
The first days of limits were hard / then I behaved like no other out / for that time without
(I) started eating half than normal, / then selected more healthy food / started reading a new book

Some said this is the time without
I’ll whisper, to the sea I will shout
No matter if I am loosing this spring
I discovered this is the time within

I went to the deck at sunrise / to do some gym in fresh air / learned to make longer breaths.
An old Indian man years ago / told me to imagine a light / - what a great insight
A light entering my body / and enlightning my inner being / bringing joy within
I missed the spring on that land / but I’ve been blossoming suddenly / Spring is forever in me

Some said this is the time without
I’ll whisper, to the sea I will shout
No matter if I am loosing this spring
I discovered this is the time within

The text is an adaptation of a Carl Jung’s passage in his Red Book, that I read during my quarantine at home for the coronavirus, and seemed appropriate to my condition.
